Ending Poverty in America is a clarion call to the nation for eliminating poverty, and offers an impressive array of approaches for doing so. The book, however, only alludes to the immense political struggle it will take to usher in a new era of federal social legislation for building a more comprehensive approach to poverty.
The voices heard here are both liberal and conservative, and tackle hot-button issues such as job creation, schools, housing, and family-friendly social policy. The contributors explain why poverty is growing and outline concrete steps that can be taken now to start turning the tide.
